Day 4 Inside Calls for Homemade Reese's!

We are seriously going a little stir crazy around here! The ice is going on day 4! The roads are pretty clear during the middle of the day, but at night everything freezes over again. Both boys still have coughs, so we can't really go out anywhere.

Little stinker started the day out by doing a little climbing! He is afraid of nothing! And he actually has really good balance and rarely falls, although I see stitches in his future!

Quiet is NEVER good with Luca unless he is asleep! 

Next he stood up! Good grief! 

After a nap or two he tried on my rain boots, I think they fit!

Santi started the day with a little legos, but that only lasts while brother is napping.

The bush right outside of our front door froze solid. During the day the gutter thawed and immediately refroze on the bush. Throughout the day the bush got worse and worse. It got to the point where we literally couldn't open the front door. Somehow that made me feel more stir crazy and trapped inside. Auntie hacked and then sawed us free! Im ready for spring to say the very least!!!

On day 4 of being iced in we needed more than just the normal lego spaceship or movie, so we decided to make the essentials, homemade reese's! They are sooooooo good!! I make them and keep them in the freezer and pull out 1 or 2 or 7 when I need some chocolate! They really do taste like the real thing, and I LOVE them and they make me (and other people) very happy!!! I roll the peanut butter part thinner than the recipe says and use a smaller cookie cutter, so it makes more than 20, a lot more!

It's supposed to snow again tomorrow! I was made for the southern warmth!! Go away already! At least we have lots and lots of reese's!!
